I have a Premature Ventricular Contraction (I think that's the same as an ectopic) followed by a compensatory pause.

Cardiologist said it's not a problem and has always been there due to the way my Sinoatrial Nodes developed (or didn't as the case may be!). On examination she did say that they can be caused or worsened by anxiety and stimulants, I get very anxious in hospitals.

I have noticed that I had a flutter in my chest if I have been taking alot of caffiene. However this fluttering has stopped recently.

Do you take melatonin or sleeping pills by any chance. I think after a night of taking these I might notice a little chest flutter but it could be that I am drinking more caffeine due to the grogginess. Or maybe it is the sleeping pills. Do you take either of these types of things?
